Mine does that. Doesn't seem to be a problem to me, but I haven't had it for very long.

I believe that is normal. We have two of the scanners in our office and they both make a clicking noise when being opened at the second joint.

I hear the same sound - I would say its normal - just the sound of the plastic locking feature clicking which holds it open

I have this scanner and the same thing happens. It appears to be normal to me as the scanner is working fine.

Hi, I'm going to say it is not normal, I have two and neither one makes any noise opening. Also think about all the doors you've opened, they shouldn't make abnormal noises. It should be covered by warranty, good luck, Larry

Tray feeder that is not motorized like in a desktop. Push the button and it pops open then push the tray closed. Over the long haul, a bit of care in using this DVD will give the plastic a long life. It is plastic quality matched to the price point which, suited our usage requirements.

To be honest, it was sort of automatic - I took note how the old one came out and then just stuck the new one in - can't remember if there is a tab you're supposed to tear off before re-inserting. Sorry I can't be more helpful than that. Good luck :)

I was able to un-jam mine, but kept the new one I bought. There isn't one of the "typical" allen wrench "unjamming" features. However, as I recall I pulled it out and by putting my hand in and trying to rotate the "innards" was able to find the offending piece of metal wedged along the outer circumference and get it out. Then it was fine - and I reinstalled it. Try that first before ordering new. These are smaller than typical units - in my case the sink is smaller so this unit takes up less cabinet space underneath. If you have to replace it, I'd suggest getting the same unit and not getting one of the larger units you find at Home Depot etc. Hope that helped!

I just ordered one of these (for $87 from Geeks) - a refurb. I come from a copier repair background and would offer some suggestions concerning its jamming issues. As mentioned above - clean the feed roller with alcohol. Make sure you thourghly fan the paper before loading. If you still have jamming - turn the stack of paper over. Paper DOES have different "grain" front to back and one side will allow a better "grip" then the other. I wouldn't believe this if it weren't for my background. It sounds like this machine is more picky than many with it's feed system - but so are some copiers - and there ARE work-arounds. So I'll take my chances with it, and post a review later...

Hi Amanda, I don't believe so...a piece may be missing or it may be loose. We are using ours now for a 16 month old and we have not heard a clicking sound before...before disassembling you may want to check the manual, it may be part of the features but that sound does not seem right

There's a piece of something--can't tell whether it's hard plastic or metal--that is permanently affixed to a metal piece. The hinging action comes from a hidden piece (so I certainly can't tell what that's made of) that pivots inside the piece described above. The piece described in sentence one does not move. It seems solid and substantial, but I can say that the piece I know to be metal has a different sound when I tap on it than the piece that's permanently affixed and does not move. Clear as mud? Don't picture something like a door hinge--it's altogether different.

Mine makes a clicking noise too. I wouldn't mind, but the clicking noise is quite loud compared to the machine running on the "Low" setting. I haven't tried this yet, but maybe it only clicks in "Auto" mode? I didn't notice it for the first few days when I had it running on High all the time.

This probably sounds silly, but did you place the cartridge in the slot with the snap in front as seen in the picture of the cartridge? If so, be sure to push it in so that it clicks. If I remember correctly, the snap "pulls" forward and makes a clicking sound. Also, be sure the ink is facing down in the slot, being careful to keep it off your hands.

I removed the cover from the mechanism with two phillips screws. The wires to the cover aren't very long so support the weight of the cover with a piece of duct tape or something while you work. There is a small beeper located on the circuit board in the lower right corner. It is black round plastic about 1/2" diameter and 1/2" tall with a hole in the top so the sound can come out. I used small needle nose pliers to break away small pieces of plastic until I could get to the metal diaphragm that makes the sound. You could also use a small screw driver or ice pick to just break the top off of the component. Removing the diaphragm silences the unit and doesn't disturb the normal operation. Be careful when reinstalling the cover so that the wires don't get pinched by the screw. Also, the screw hole at the bolts is slotted so make sure the cover doesn't rub the bolts when you tighten the screw. Thanks for making the comment about the beeping sound. In dead silence it would certainly be a locator beacon just to where you are standing while trying to get to a weapon to protect yourself.

?that's strange.. mine have never done that...and this is my second one. Is it locked in before you turn it on...you should hear a click when you put them in place....sorry I don't know any better answer. I can only guess that it has something to do with the latching mechanism.

It does have a clicking sound when you scroll which sounds kind of like a zipper being zipped. If you are in a quiet room, that sound can really grate on your nerves! I wouldn't buy this mouse again because of the clicking sound.

There is a "nose-cone" tip that unscrews. ... Just stupid simple ... There is a tension spring but the insert (refill cartridge) does not retract ... It is just covered by the cap. ... The cap (with the ring monunted on it) snaps on (does not screw on) ... I read that some people lost their pen because the cap did not retain the main body of the pen ... I bought it anyway ... I lost mine, within a week ... This is a fairly short pen ... The cartrige does not use the PARKER Compatability extension adapter, that comes with each refill, because this is not a full length pen (but is long enough for normal, comfort and control).

If you push a litter harder on the applicator tip it should make a clicking noise. I haven't had any issues with it staying on if I push it down far enough.

Many of these 'nrtbooks' make that sound. Some are just louder than others. For me, that sound does not bother me as much as fan noise. That will make it or break it for me. But I know the 'ticking' on and off can get annoying too.

There are slight clicking sounds when opening and closing it but I wouldn't consider it noisy.
